SUMMARY
A painter’s resistance, courage, and spirit can never be imprisoned in this highly stylized story of the conflict of two frustrated artists, one Palestinian (Khaled, played by Ali Suliman) and one Israeli (Eyal, who is also the soldier who once detained and tortured Khaled, played by Guy el Hanan), on either side of Israel’s militarized borders.
Inspired by the creative journey of renowned Palestinian artist-in-exile Hani Zurob and based on true stories and testimonies from the region, we witness expression, confinement, torture, jealousy, courage, and freedom as both artists strive to paint a picture of life surrounded by conflict.
